Raz Posted April 26, 2010 Share Posted April 26, 2010 i thought all starlets did that. Mine idles at about 1500-1700 and drops as it gets warmer and warmer, doubt it is anything to worry about. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Asad Posted April 26, 2010 Share Posted April 26, 2010 Its the coolant temp sensor telling the rest of the electronic stuff that the cars cold and it needs to warm up....i.e idle high get the oil/water warmed for better fuel effeciency reduced engine wearby no means is it a bad thing totally normal :harhar: Quote Link to post Share on other sites
